Safe Internal Temperatures for Cooking Meat

To keep you and your family healthy and avoid foodborne illnesses, be sure to cook your food - particularly meat - thoroughly. This can mean different temperatures for different types of meat, so always use a digital food thermometer and insert it into the thickest part of the meat to get the most accurate reading.

Use the following guidelines, provided by the Wisconsin Department of Health & Family Services, to cook your meat to a safe internal temperature.
